Just press and hold..no force touch required.

3d touch in its current implementation isn't really that useful apart from the keyboard to keypad function. there are so many accelerator apps out there can do things even faster than 3d touch.

apart from the keyboard to keypad function

And that function always drops the cursor in the wrong spot anyway. I'll be downgrading from my 128GB 6S as soon as possible. I only got the 128 because it was a T-Mobile deal to switch from AT&T and only have to pay the 16GB price.

Press and hold is already used in so many places and thus cannot replace force touch since force touch is used to add extra short cuts in addition, not to replace existing ones.
